More than a third of the UK's office-based workforce is still working from home, at least part of the time.
And fewer than one in 10 say they want to return to their desks five days a week. Hybrid is officially the new normal, according to the UK Government's statisticians.
But try telling that to controversial entrepreneur Elon Musk, chief executive of electric car group Tesla.
He has now stepped up his campaign against working from home - targeting staff who fail to turn up often enough with automated demands for an explanation.
The car maker is tracking how many times its workers swipe into offices and sending messages to those who do not swipe enough warning that all staff are expected in the office during normal working hours.
The Telegraph has seen a screenshot of an e-mail sent to staff which says: "You are receiving this e-mail because there is no record of you using your badge to enter a Tesla facility on at least 16 days over the 30-day period ending on June 28.
"As a reminder, all employees are expected to be back in the office, full-time."
Explain absence
Staff receiving such e-mails must send an explanation of their absence to line managers and also to a central monitoring point.
Posts on a workplace discussion forum from Tesla staff suggest the new policy is proving unpopular.
One said: "This feels wrong. I can't quite put it into words why it bothers me, it feels like it's an overstep. It's controlling. It's disrespectful."
Mr Musk has been outspoken in his dislike for remote working, saying last month that Tesla staff working from home "should pretend to work somewhere else".
The electric car maker has said staff should spend at least 40 hours per week in the workplace before being eligible to work remotely.
In the past, the Tesla chief executive has suggested employees should work 100 hours a week to "change the world".
